The 2018 Quarter 4 link for your finishes is now open below on my blog and on each of the hosting blogs - you only need to link on one blog for your finish to appear on all host blogs.

Link-up "Rules":

Add one link for each finish.  If you want to link a round up post of all your finishes, use that link to enter one of your finishes and then link the rest of your finishes separately.  Please, only one link per finish, as your link is an entry into the randomly drawn prize draws. 

Please ensure that the photo (Instagram or Flickr) or blog post you link up contains a link or reference back to your original list so that we can verify your entry (make sure it is from the appropriate quarter, too). On Instagram, tag your photos with #2018FALQ4yourname (where yourname is unique to you), this makes it easier for us to match your finishes with your list, which also should have this tag.

Please become part of the FAL community.  Check out the links of others and leave a comment. We all need encouragement so let's applaud each other.  The 2018 FAL Facebook page is HERE and you can follow us on Instagram @finishalong.

Our hosts will also link up their finishes to share in the community but they are not eligible for any of the prizes.

The Q4 Finishes link will stay open from now thru 11 pm, EST, Wednesday, January 9, 2019 - as we are global, you might want to check your time zone to determine your last possible time to link (you can also see how much time is left below the linked up images on the right).  It is best to link up your finishes early and if you have a last minute one, add that one later so you don't miss out.  The prizes will be awarded as soon as we can verify all the entries and do the drawings.  We will post the winners on each host's blog.

Lastly, don't forget to start making your 2019 list as the Q1 list link opens on January 10, 2019.

My Q4 Finish-A-Long List

10/17/2018

6 Comments

 
Looking for the Q4 Finish-A-Long link up?  Click HERE to go to it.

I'm going to be honest, I'm struggling ya'll.  Struggling to fit in sewing/quilting time, struggling to take photos (my biggest problem) and struggling to blog.  Oh and social media, I'm virtually absent there.  I guess real life has just been ruling the day.  Nothing is really going on (other than 3 kids) but I'm finding it more and more difficult to get sewing time.  I'm making a Q4 list because I WANT TO WORK ON SOMETHING, but this year has been a total failure in terms of the Finish-A-Long for me.

Usually I make a "How I did in the last quarter?" post but this time it was pointless.  The third quarter only resulted in one finish (pajamas) that I have yet to take photos of.  I didn't touch anything else and truth be told I just finished those pajamas a week before the link-up began.  So there we have it.  Lame.

Moving forward, what should I do about my list this quarter?  Since I have been totally unmotivated to make any of the quilts that have been on the list ALL YEAR, I'm starting fresh with seasonal quilts that I really want to work on.  Here we go:
1.  Modern Maple - I intend for this to be a "fall" quilt and since the weather just turned "fall-ish" here it would be nice to work on it now.  I have 20+ blocks and I'm thinking of adding a few acorn blocks possibly.
Picture
2. La Petite Salon Quilt - Obviously it is a top, I have all the supplies for the backing.  I think this is a full sized quilt and would work great for my 6 year old's bed.  I'm thinking a wood grain pattern quilting would be fun, maybe throw in a few acorns in the quilting.  Apparently I'm thinking of acorns a lot....
Picture
3.  Christmas Spiderwebs - Christmas will be here before the blink of an eye!  This was a bee block from years ago.  I have 24+ of these made, just need to put them into a quilt top, lap sized I think.
Picture
4.  Lori Holt Christmas Quilt - I would really like to work on this one during the Christmas season. I have 4-5 blocks made.  It will be a fun wall hanging.
Picture
5.  Bee Sewcial Triangles - I can't have a list without this quilt top!  Ugh, I need to make the backing.
Picture
6.  Waterfall Raglan - This is actually a finished top that I finished earlier this year as part of the Finish-a-Long.  I'm really not in love with the fit, it's about 2 sizes too big.  So I think I'm going to take it apart, cut it a bit smaller and then sew it back together.

There we have it, six items.  Let's see if I can work on at least some of them this quarter.

You still have time to link up yourself, create a list and play along.  We love having you and encouraging you all to finish up those WIPS!  Oh and possibly win some prizes too!

2018 Finish-A-Long - Quarter 4 Link Up!

10/10/2018

1 Comment

 
Its time to link up your list of unfinished projects that you propose to finish in Q4 of the Finish-A-Long. We are hoping that the FAL community will inspire you to work on your unfinished projects this quarter and to get them finished before the end of the year!

The 2018 FAL is hosted by a community of bloggers across the world. Our hosts are:

  • Marci - Marci Girl Designs - USA
  • Sandra (also Social Media Director) - Studio Sew of Course - Ireland
  • Leanne - She Can Quilt  - Canada 
  • Ella - Throw a Wench in the Works - USA
  • Felicity - Felicity Quilts - Canada
  • Karen - Capitola Quilter - USA
  • Izzy - Dizzy Quilts - Canada
  • Lynne - Tinking Along - USA
For those of you who are new to the FAL, it is a place to find motivation and encouragement to complete those unfinished projects that are hanging around. At the start of the quarter you post and link up a list of projects you hope to finish in the next three months, and then at the end of the quarter you link up each successful finish from your original list.

Each linked up finish is an entry into the draw for wonderful prizes from our sponsors. There is no penalty for not finishing a listed project, so feel free to make your list as long or short as you wish. The 2018 Schedule and Rules for the FAL are on my permanent 2018 FAL page, let me know if you have any questions.

Here are the fantastic and generous sponsors for Q4 of the Finish-A-Long, you can see each of their prizes listed under their logo. Please think about visiting them and saying thank you for their support of the FAL.

So now it is time to round up those projects that you want to finish over the next three months! Take a photo of each one and make your list. Please ensure that you have at least started your projects - pulled fabric with a pattern is considered a UFO - and remember it is only finished projects that will get you an entry toward the above listed prizes. So while we love to see your bee blocks, the "finish" is when they are a completed, usable project.

If posting on social media (Flickr & Instagram), it will be very helpful if you tag your list with #2018FALQ4yourname (where yourname is unique to you). Using the same hashtag over the quarter when sharing project progress or finishes helps the host to make the connection to your original list quickly and easily.
IMPORTANT: Don't forget to link up your finishes when the quarter closes!

The 2018 Q4 list for your list of proposed finishes is now open, below, on my blog and each of the hosting blogs. You need only link your list once, on one host blog, and the link will show up on all the host blogs. If you are using Flickr or Instagram, post a photo mosaic of your projects and put your list in the description. Don't forget to include your unique hashtag. Katy of The Littlest Thistle has a great tutorial on how to link up if you need it, or Marci of Marci Girl Designs has a tutorial to link up an Instagram post specifically.

We also ask that you become part of the FAL community. Please check out the links of others - visit and comment on their lists. We all need encouragement to get those finishes done, so please share some of your own too.

If you want you can follow us on Facebook, Finish-A-Long and/or on Instagram, @finishalong, too. We'll post encouragement during the quarter and reminders when the finishes link up opens at the end of the quarter.

When creating your list there is one thing to remember - No deductions for not completing something so - Aim High! Nothing to lose!! Well now, get your list together and get linked up.

Feel free to use and share the FAL button above and this one too:

The Q4 proposed finish linky party will stay open until 11 pm EST, Thursday, October 18, 2018 - as we are global, you might want to check your time zone to determine your last possible time to link (you can also see how much time is left below the linked up images on the right.)
Remember: you only need to link up at ONE hosting blog and it will automatically show up on all hosting blogs.
